Green & Go. S report on cotton futures SAYS:
Active trading and buoyant prices have
characterized the market for cotton options to-
day. All months were in demand, and while
occasional periods of weakness seemed to de-
velop offerings were quickly and promptly
taken care of, and the advancing tendency re
ceved new impetus. Liverpool improved
somewhat, but the principal Influences are to
be found in the universal strength OF reduced
estimates of the crop as Indicated by the recent
official report The advance amounted to 1870
~ points, closing at the highest level of the
day, with the tone very strong and a little eX-
cited on the limited amount Of Offering"

CHICAGO. Oct 13-Wheat trading to-day was
light, in fact the market was quite dun most of
the session, but at the same time the feeling
was steady. LIVERPOOL was quoted quiet and a
shade lower, and this caused an easy feeling
early here and n slight decline. Later the mar
ket became stronger under fair buying, in
fiuenced by the rumor that freight engagements
had been made at Duluth to move ont a large
quantity OF wheat-reported at 100000 bush
els. Receipts, too, in the Northwest were
smaller, while exports from the seaboard ports
were larger, aggregating 1877, 600 bushels These

with trading limited and confined to local ope-

tirely by local influences The market opened
at about yesterdays closing, tluctuated within
14c range and closed shade firmer than yester-
day Receipts were less than anticipated and
estimates for tomorrow somewhat larger. IL
was reported that Western roads had reduced

bushels inspected ont of store yesterday, and

bushels Oats were ii good shipping demand.
Arrivals were not large. and the sample market
exhibited a good deal of strength. On the regu
lar market trade, which is speculative mainly,
was quite small. Prices, Notwithstanding this
fact ruled without material change from
Yesterdays quotations. Provisions were slow

reipts of hogs were larger and nrices lower.
This had II weakening effect on holders of pro
